Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
How can I make my job application stand out from the crowd? Whether it is for a postdoc, lectureship, or fellowship, a strong CV and supporting materials are vital to unlocking the next stage of the application process.
During this in-person workshop we will share examples to explore the key building blocks of a strong academic CV and cover letter, and utilise exercises on how best to present your skills and experience within your own application materials.
We will also provide a brief overview of structuring additional materials that can be required, including teaching and research statements, and demonstrate how the skills gained within this session can be applied to develop these.
This session will focus on application materials for academic positions only.

To get the most out of this workshop we strongly encourage you to look at the Academic Applications page of our website before you attend.
